I need to build a closet in an attic. I suspect it will be crammed full of junk, more than just holiday decorations. The clear span is under 8 ft … in fact an 8 ft 2x will overhang about an inch on each end.
What size 2x do I need? Will a 2×6 be ok?
I’m sorry, I thought you wanted it done the right way.

Not entirely sure without a sketch, or more specifics, but heres a link that might help.
Thanks. That shows 2x6 @ 16" will span 9'-9" so I'm good to go.
